"Before Laurie Hook became Beringerâs chief winemaker, she was responsible for the wines from Knights Valley, where Beringer farms 600 acres at elevations reaching 450 feet. In 2010, sheâs melded the fresh black currant flavors of the fruit from these rocky hillsides into a silken textural pleasure, balancing sweet and savory elements in a plump and luxurious cabernet. Her 2010 Knights Valley Reserve received 93 points in the June issue, another exceptional performance for the vineyard in this vintage."

The fourth-largest wine producer in the world, led by California. American fine wine is defined by ripe, expressive fruit and a spirit of innovation, with Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon among the most sought-after wines globally.
The world's most planted premium red grape, yielding deeply colored, tannic and structured wines with cassis, cedar and graphite notes. Firm tannins and acidity make it exceptionally age-worthy, whether as a varietal or the backbone of a Bordeaux blend.
